Pep Guardiola: “I don’t have a defence! I’m the manager, I have to find a solution - and I don’t find a solution! This is a big club, when you lose 8-10 games - something wrong is happening! I can say the schedule is tough, I can say injured players - but NO! I’m the boss, and I’m not good enough - it’s as simple as that! I’m not doing well, that is the truth!”

Pep tonight he doesn’t know how to fix it.
Because there isn’t really a solution-several players who can no longer run for 90 minutes-of course not having stones Ake and Akanji is costing us but two of them are injury prone in any case.

During this run the team have collapsed during almost every second half. A perfect storm of fatigue, ageing and injuries coupled with awful team planning.

The team is dead and has been for the majority of the season.

He's shouldering the blame, but that wasn't on him. He's being very badly let down at the moment, and I'm sure he's going to sort it out behind the scenes.
 
But why has Pep and the club let this happen knowing it could blow up at anytime ? 100% the players were knackered in the summer and Pep and the club knew it ? 4 in a row and a treble the season and international tournaments in the summers you 100% know it's coming,

Pep ideal Squad size is a major Problem for Manchester City and should have been addressed, If City wants to fight on all fronts and have international players you are going to need a maximum of 25 first-team players.

...because having a small squad is what Pep likes, and lets be fair it's not done too badly has it.

The main issue is Rodri. We lost the best player in the world and you're right, the club should have done everything to get a player to rotate with him this summer gone. It was a bad decision not to.
 
One thing I’m quite glad about is a week rest for them. Pep said they don’t have time on the training pitch to sort it, here’s your chance. A week to talk through it, analyse and kick out whoever isn’t up for the fight. A week of training and going over mistakes. It was like watching a fat cat swat at a fly today, embarrassing, but now is really the time that some strong words need to be had with certain players, players who aren’t even at that level anymore. Let’s hope we can change it and get back to winning ways.

I don't think they will be training for a week ?? tomorrow will be a rest day and a warm-down for the ones that didn't play, talking about the troubles well that will be funny, Haaland barely broke into a sweat and ghosted the game Walker also and he's the club captain, What can you say to players that have been and done it won it all and old enough to understand themselves they are being allowed to ghost and is not good enough
